Great find! I am not refined, so I will go on a weak tangent. In Europe during WWII a young army captain played his bugle at night. Apparently he played a popular song at the time. In a high perch looking over the town, a very young and dangerous German sniper heard the song. It so moved him that he walked into the American camp, surrendered, and asked to meet the musician. I guess this old tanker can relate to music to a degree. :)
